Social Media Manager, Nu Gamma Chapter · Ferris State University

As founding Social Media Manager for the Nu Gamma chapter of the Delta Mu Delta International Honor Society in Business, I built a cohesive brand identity from the ground up — bridging the gap between a national academic organization and the Ferris State student body. I led a multi-channel approach combining a refreshed digital presence with traditional outreach, including a targeted advertisement designed for the business school newspaper.
